Stephen Bunting and Dave Chisnall through to the Last 16 in Wolverhampton
NewsMonday, 13 November 2017 at 23:39
Stephen Bunting and Dave Chisnall are the last men through from tonight's half of the draw. Bunting was through no matter what happened due to his wins over Chisnall and De Zwaan but still defeated Scott Mitchell in a nail biting decider which if Mitchell won he would go through and if Bunting won, both St Helens ace's would go through to the Last 16.
It was Bunting that defeated Mitchell meaning 'Chizzy' secured his passage and for Mitchell a long wait for a Last 16 spot continues as he has never got out of the group in the years' he has played the Grand Slam.
Chisnall though was only in this position because he lost to Dutchman Jeffrey de Zwaan 5-4 earlier on which put Mitchell back in contention but it was Bunting who saved his skin in the end.

- Two from the three of Price, Aspinall and Dobey should have been excluded, De Decker and Edhouse should have been in. I would have offered a place to Beau Greaves though i doubt she would have accepted it and probably not really ready for it confidence wise.Mysstree06-01-2025
- Tennis has a protected ranking system for injuries and Golf has a system that as a Major winner you get invited back of a number of years regardless of your ranking. Barry Hearn gave Stephen Hendry a wildcard for some tournaments though he still had to enter at the qualification stage. Doubt the PDC would give Burnett an exemption as he has never won a PDC Major, same would apply to Steve Beaton. It’s a slippery slope to abandoning a meritocratic system, if the PDC did do so they could then (for example) award a place to Fallon Sherrock even though she has yet to qualify at any level for a tour card.Mysstree06-01-2025
- I'd have said the same about Ady Lewis,but the PDC is indeed a law unto itself,so sorry bud,get your leg kicking and do it for the good lads!!rick6705-01-2025
- COME ON RICHIE BURNETT Surely a World Champion and player with the calibra of Richie should be exempt from ever losing a tour card and having to qualify.richieburnettrocks04-01-2025
- That's true, Richie. Taylor used to call it, "Manley's millions."MrYnyslas197103-01-2025
- The semi finals are so one sided nowadays. Bunting and Dobey had their final in the quarters and simply had no interest once they got behind and gave up., yet both will be whining for premier league places. Earning enough to keep the rankings is more important to most players. Peter Manley got to a final with Phil Taylor but was more happy that he had earned enough to pay off his mortgage and promptly and expectedly whitewashed by Philrichieburnettrocks03-01-2025

- Jealously.....a nothing happening player who has won nothing and only redeeming feature is his ever increasing bald spot. He'll be crying he deserves a premier league place next. Class A Tw4trichieburnettrocks31-12-2024
